Mirae Asset previously signed with the state-run bank to take over a 43 percent stake in KDB Daewoo Securities and all of KDB Daewoo Management for a combined 2.45 trillion won. 

The price was cut by 66.7 billion won, or 2.72 percent, after the value of some of Daewoo Asset‘s overseas assets and local properties was found to have deteriorated further.
